SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 367,532, dated August2, 1887.

' Application filed April 13, 1887. Serial No. 234,604. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JOHN LJUNG, of Nelson, in the county of Douglas andState of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inGearing, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved gearing fortransmitting power very effectively and economically.

The invention consists in the construction and arrangement of variousparts and details and combinations of the same, as will be fullydescribed hereinafter, and then pointed out in the claims.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part ofthis specification, in which similar letters of reference indicatecorresponding parts in all the figures.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improve ment. Fig. 2 is a sectionalplan view of the same on the line 00 x of Fig. i. Fig. 3is a sectionalplan view of the drivingshaft' and its crank-arm, and Fig. i is asectional end elevation of the swinging frame and intermediategear-wheel.

On a suitable standard, A, is secured one end of the spindle or pin 13,which forms on its other end a bearing for one end of the shaft O,rigidly-connected with the crank-arm D, having a bearing in the standardA. On the shaft O is secured the gear-wheel'E, meshing into theintermediate gear-wheel, F, secured to the shaft G, having its bearingin the counterbalanced frame H, turning loosely on the shaft 0. I

The intermediate gear-wheel meshcsinto the internal gear, 1, formed onthe transmittingwheel J, connected either by belt passing over the rim'Jor by the gear J? with the machinery to be driven. On the shaft G isalso secured a gear-wheel, K, meshing into the gearwheel L, secured tothe fixed spindle B.

The operation is as follows: Power is ap plied to the crank-arm D,whereby the shaft 0 and its gear-wheel E are rotated. The latter impartsa rotary motion to the intermediate gear-wheel, F, thus turning theshaft G, whereby the gear-wheel K is caused to rollon the fixedgear-wheel Ia, so that the counterbalanced frame H, carrying the saidgearwheels F and K, turns on its fulcrum, and the gear-wheel F therebytransmits its power to the wheel J as it meshes into the internal gear,I, formed on the said wheel J. Thus it will be seen that the powerimparted to the (llilllkilllll D is very effectively and economicallytransmitted to the driving-wheel J.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is-

1. In a gearing, the combination, with a fixed spindle and agear-wheelsecu red thereon, of a shaft carrying a crankarm and being inline with the said fixed spindle, a gear-wheel secured on the saidshaft, an intermediate gear-wheel meshing into the said gear-wheel, athird gear-wheel rigidly secured to the said intermediate gear wheel,and a counterbalanced frame turning loosely on said shaft and saidspindle, and carrying said intermediate and third gear-wheels,substantially as shown and described.

2. In a gearing, the combination, with a fixed spindle and a gear-wheelsecured thereon, of a shaft carrying a crank-arm and being in line withthe said fixed spindle, a gear-wheel secured on the said shaft, anintermediate gear-wheel meshing into the said gear-wheel, a thirdgear-wheel rigidly secured to the said intermediate gear-wheel, acounterbalanced frame turning loosely on said shaft and said spindle,and carrying said intermediate and third gear wheels, and the maindriving-wheel having an internal gear meshing into the said intermediategear wheel, substantially as shown and described.
